15 Addressing Health and Well-being with in Student Residences at Lancaster Students wellbeing is greatly affected by their environment and the conditions they live in. Accommodation is therefore a significant part of a student s experience whilst at university. Design with emphasis on the importance of light, sound, temperature, air quality, and access. Social study designed for wellbeing to produce better learning outcomes. Design through all senses sound, smell, touch. Spaces to address the relational, social, and ecological needs of students. Residences catering for diverse and varied living patterns to provide the fundamental necessities of space, autonomy, security and good living.

31 6 key impact areas critical to experience and wellbeing Light Ventilation Thermal comfort Acoustics Interactive office voice frequency) Biophilia Improving daylight provision and increasing the quality of artificial light Increasing ventilation and reducing volatile compounds and carbon dioxide The temperature of the working environment, individual s ability to control it Environmental noise (e.g. roads), white noise (e.g. air conditioning systems) and pink noise (e.g. human The level of control an individual has over the office environment, for example, control of lighting, ventilation Plants, nature, and a physical view of desk the set-up outdoors, interior colours and materials

32 Atkins Human Centred Design

33 human centred design: light Light is a external trigger for a wide variety of biological responses. Our brain registers light as data about the external environment. Vitamin D Circadian rhythm Heart rate Sleep quality Concentration Office workers who sit near windows in offices have, on average, 46 more minutes sleep per night than colleagues without a window. (I.Cheung, 2013)

34 human centred design: light good natural light levels sees an improvement impact on student progression. +26% Reading +20% Maths 4%

35 human centred design: ventilation gains in productivity as a result of increased outside air rates, dedicated delivery of fresh air to the workstation, and reduced levels of pollutants. 18.5% 3.5%

36 human centred design: sound Neuroscientists have linked a number of brain regions with our emotional responses to sound. These include: Thalamus - Relays sensory data and helps regulate sleep Amygdala - Processes memories and emotional reactions Prefrontal cortex - Linked to personality and critical decision-making Insular cortex - Regulates heartbeat and is connected to empathy, pain and social awareness Broca's area - Affects language comprehension and generation Source:

37 human centred design: sound 2%

38 human centred design: connection to nature Visual connection Providing a visual connection facilitates increased communications amongst colleagues and supports knowledge sharing (Shafaghat et al, 2014) Connectivity to the wider world Attention restoration reduces cortisol levels and reduces stress (Lee, Williams & Sargent, 2015)
